Points to note...

1. A man is not allowed to fantasize about another woman other than his wife while copulating.  It is a type of Zina.

2. It is recommended that a woman does not dress lightly in front of another woman who is not serious in Deen because there are all probabilities that she will describe her to male strangers.

3. Just as it is forbidden to look at the hair of a female, it is also forbidden to look at them after they have fallen. A woman must pick up her fallen hair and must not leave them scattered.

4. It is Farz to eat a quantity that allows a person to do his Ibaadaat with ease. It is Mubaah (allowed) to eat until one is satiated. But it is Haraam to exceed this limit.

5. It is forbidden to wear pants or pyjamas that cover the ankles. One must leave the ankles uncovered. This applies both in Salah and outside Salah and it applies only to men.

6. It is Haraam to take pictures of animate things. If you were photographed or filmed on the occasion of your wedding, what will you do if your marriage breaks tomorrow? Let's say that you will destroy the photos but will your friends also do the same? After the breakup, you would have perhaps contracted another Nikah but your photo and your film will remain in the cupboard or gallery of someone else. Is it nice? After all, it is a serious offense and its consequence is very serious too. Intelligent people do not do things that harm them and are nefarious to their well-being.

7. Keep the beard because it is a Sunnah of our beloved Nabi (Sallallaahu Alaihi Wasallam). Do not wait for it to become the fashion of the disbelievers to keep it.
